Paris Saint-Germain jetted out to Shenzhen in China on Tuesday, officially embarking on the China Tour 2019.
After enjoying a day off after the friendly match against Nuremburg, the capital club met up at the Ooredoo Training Centre on Tuesday before heading to the Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle airport at 15:00 CET.
About an hour later, Les Rouge et Bleu hopped on board their specially chartered flight for Shenzhen, after posing for a team photo in front of the plane alongside the five Accor members who have been invited to follow the team up close and personal during the first four days in China.
The team took to the air around 17:00 CET for the 12-hour flight, that the players enjoyed with their new headphones that they received from club partner Beats as well as tablets with the game Brawl Stars that Presnel Kimpembe and Co. quickly tested. Two hours after take-off, a light dinner for it was off to bed…
After breakfast in the skies, the Paris Saint-Germain touched down in China around 11:00 local time (5am in France), before heading to the hotel where numerous supporters were waiting to greet the team, including several members of Fan Club China, and the squad also received a warm welcome from the hotel owner! In the afternoon, Les Rouge et Bleu will train for the first time on this China Tour 2019.
